Re: WTB: ****** Wagon
Mike;
Thanks for the link to the groups charter. I see that the charter does
not specifically state that "Wanted to Buy" requests are ok or not ok,
but it does state that "It is also meant to be a forum for buying and
selling parts by non-commercial vendors." So, I guess my "Wanted to
Buy" post was ok. Again thanks for the groups charter.

Re: WTB: ****** Wagon
OK! After a 2 month long search we have found a ****** Wagon and have
purchased it. It's advertised as a 1950, but we are a bit skeptical -
it does not have the "pointed and chrome stripped" 1950's grill.
Looks more like a 1949 or an early 1950 before they went to the new
grill. We know that in those years ****** did release cars in "half
year" increments, perhaps that is what we have - an early 1950.
It has a Chevy 235 straight 6 with a Turbo 400 transmission, has been
raised, has large tires and has been painted. We suspect the
restoration/conversion has been done by several hands - some of the
work is well done, and some is, well, not so good. It's a good vehicle
to fiddle with and slowy bring back up, and we can enjoy it in the
meantime without having to do a frame up restore. It is a bit of head
turner, and we will post some pics as soon as I can get a Web site
going (it's in the works).
Thanks to the posters here for all of their leads, ideas, and
observations. There are still quite a few of these wagons out there -
many, it would seem, in Colorado and Wyoming, so if your willing to
drive and make this a fun thing to do, the possibilities are there.
How would you do this without the internet? I don't know.
Now we are looking for an old tub that has all of the original ******
tags and VIN regs, so we can reregister this one with the proper
documentation (it has a California reissue VIN tag, further clouding
the actual age and type of this wagon). May be off to Colorado Springs
in the near future, we found a '50 tub and grill and fenders for not so
much money.
Thanks again, be well, and hope to see you all down the road. I'll
keep the board posted as to our progress.
